Re: OT - the tree is coming down

A Crepe Myrtle- oh bah!  I'm so sick of seeing those trees- they are 
every where here.  There's got to be something more interesting than 
that.  I was admiring a "California pepper" tree down the street earlier 
this week (don't know it's real name)- but I love the feathery/fern-like 
leaves.  Anybody know more about this tree? (or for that matter do you 
even know what tree I'm talking about?)
